Automatic Gain Control Discord

Automatic Gain Control on Discord helps you maintain consistent microphone volume during voice chats. It automatically adjusts the input levels to prevent your voice from being too loud or quiet. However, some users may prefer more control over their audio settings or find that the feature doesn’t work well for their needs. Iโ€™ll show you how to disable it for better audio management.

Letโ€™s begin!
